Now it is about starting a successful containment strategy: all contact persons for crown patients would be contacted and quarantined. Koch appealed to anyone displaying flu-like symptoms for testing. “This way we can push the curve lower.”
Relaxation for nursing homes.
According to Koch, the winners of the current situation are also the ones at risk. “You don’t have to be afraid of getting infected right now and you can move more freely.” Seniors and people with past illnesses should continue to avoid public transportation during rush hours and shopping malls.
Retirement homes could also relax their visiting rules after eight weeks under a difficult regime. According to Koch, visits should be possible again if protective measures are taken. Normal family contacts could now be maintained again.
